Versatile Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 That's a really nice pic...I wonder if she can play too? Great looking guitar...possibly a custom Florentine J160e perhaps? Whatever it is I want one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 333 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 That's a CF-100E. Like the J-160E, it was introduced in the early 1950's. I believe the CF-100E was the predecessor of the J-160E by a few years, too; the CF-100 was introduced in 1950, the CF-100E with electronics in 1951 ( I think), and the J-160E in 1954. Both the CF-100E and J-160E have the P90 pick up and the anvil inlays, but the CF-100E is an LG-2 size body (with cutaway), while the J-160E is a jumbo (what we today would call a slope-shouldered dreadnaught like a J-45, but not a Super Jumbo like the J-200). I have read the CF-100E's have solid tops (the original J-160E's had laminated tops), but I'm not 100% popitive about that. Red 333 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroAussie Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Heres' a preview of the movie - anyone seen it ? Appears to be a bit of a girl version of Crazy Heart .. Some nice Gibbys played there including a splitting image of my Country Western ! :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOLzfxrgvKM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Versatile Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Thankyou Red....as they say, way ahead of it's time in the 50's. I wonder if they would reissue it?..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was reissued by Bozeman in the last 10 years or so. Fuller's has one with TWO cutaways. I think it was the only one ever made.

bkharmony Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 At the last Guitar show I attended, Fuller's brought a couple out. They pop up on eBay several times a year. They can be found. I also asked a Gibson Rep at the show if they were planning to make another run, and he said they would make me one any time I wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanvillRob Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 However, the original question was, "What Gibson is Gwyneth Playing?" And of course, the answer is "none". She's no more playing a guitar than I'm acting in a movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they back lit her so as not to show that lame attempt at a D chord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-minor7 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Oouhh sure, she looks cute, but I have to ask. Though using broad strap, can she really bear this guitar. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
